Chapter 1 Gu Family Law
Unfortunately, in the Gu family, only Gu Yu and Gu Qingheng liked to eat durian.
When Gu Qingheng ‘treacherously’ stuffed durian into his father’s mouth, Gu Qing’s reaction was unusually strong. After rinsing his mouth with salt water several times, he grabbed a stick and beat Gu Qingheng all over the courtyard.
Gu Yu chuckled, did not stop him, but sat on the mountain and watched the tigers fight, personally watching his brother-in-law being beaten until he cried “Ao ao!”.
“A Yu, what’s going on? And why does the house smell so bad!!! Did you eat durian again?”
Just as Gu Yu was watching his brother-in-law being beaten, Gu Mengyao’s voice suddenly sounded from the side.
When Gu Yu turned his head and looked to the side, he immediately saw Gu Mengyao appear beside him silently.
Gu Yu, who was already familiar with his wife’s ghost-like appearances, was not startled. Instead, he organized his thoughts in his heart, thinking about how to perfectly pin the blame on Gu Qingheng.
Durian, this kind of fruit, is a joy for those who like it, but it is like a biochemical weapon for those who don’t.
In this regard, one could see it just by looking at his prospective father-in-law, who almost vomited.
“Qingheng came to wake me up, so I mentioned durian, and then Qingheng’s curiosity exploded, and he insisted that I take out the durian… When he thought that good things must be shared, my father-in-law came over… By the way, I also took a durian to Auntie Fei, I don’t know if she likes it.”
Without taking too long, Gu Yu quickly explained the whole story, completely clearing himself from it.
The truth and falsehood in his words would not make people doubt.
Especially, Gu Qing’s current behavior of chasing Gu Qingheng with a stick could not be ignored by Gu Mengyao…
“Today is the day to set off, why is Qingheng so troublesome! I regret taking him with me, I’m worried he’ll cause trouble outside.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay, don’t worry too much, if the sky falls, I, your brother-in-law, will hold it up!”
“You just spoil him!”
After all, Gu Qingheng was Gu Mengyao’s own brother. Hearing Gu Yu’s reassuring words, the corners of her mouth couldn’t help but turn up, and she said something she didn’t mean.
Obviously, Gu Mengyao was very satisfied with Gu Yu’s pampering of Gu Qingheng.
Love me, love my neighbor, this idiom did not come from nowhere.
And Gu Yu, apart from teasing his brother-in-law occasionally, would try his best to satisfy whatever Gu Qingheng wanted. It could be considered very doting.
Of course, the usual pranks were all ways to deepen their relationship.
“Father, please stop hitting Qingheng, we are about to set off.”
“This brat, he can’t eat it himself, but he has to make me eat it. I will enforce the Gu family law today!”
After Gu Qingheng learned martial arts, his physical fitness improved, and it was difficult for Gu Qing to catch up with Gu Qingheng’s speed without using lightness skills.
However, it was clear that Gu Qing didn’t really want to beat Gu Qingheng, but was using this opportunity to test Gu Qingheng’s martial arts.
For an old fox like Gu Qing, he didn’t need to fight with Gu Qingheng, he could tell just by looking at his body’s reactions.
Gu Mengyao was going to take Gu Qingheng out to broaden his horizons this time, and Gu Qing knew about it, but he was still a little worried about his mischievous son.
Having such a rare opportunity at this moment made Gu Qing very happy in his heart, wishing he could directly squeeze out Gu Qingheng’s full potential.
Although Gu Qing also doted on Gu Mengyao very much, he was, after all, born and raised in Linfeng Kingdom. He was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart to have a son who was both educated and skilled in martial arts, thinking that the Gu family had heirs!
This traditional thinking was particularly important in the eyes of the older generation.
And people like Gu Qing were considered good. If it were another family, they would have long since stopped treating their daughters as family.
After all, a married daughter is like spilled water… However, Gu Yu was a son-in-law who married into the wife’s family…
“Exactly, my sister said, Father, please stop hitting me! Besides, do we have family laws? We should keep up with the times!”
“You are still strong enough to speak, it seems I underestimated you!”
“No, no, no, Father, I’m almost tired as a dog!!!”
Afterwards, upon hearing Gu Mengyao say that they were about to set off, Gu Qing did not continue the test. Instead, he used half of his strength to beat Gu Qingheng properly. Then, after saying some words of caution to Gu Mengyao, he left with satisfaction.
Gu Qingheng then looked resentfully at his father leaving, and then shifted his gaze to Gu Yu.
“Brother-in-law, do you have any more durian?”
…
After Gu Qingheng was properly educated by Gu Mengyao, the three of them did not linger in the Gu Residence, but directly rode horses out of the capital, following the bone treasure map, searching for the buried treasure.
However, the location of the treasure marked on the treasure map was not close to the capital, and it would take a considerable amount of time to reach the destination.
However, after Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao had just completed their mission, they had quite a lot of rest time.
Coupled with Gu Mengyao having informed the Empress in advance, there was no need to worry about how much time it would take.
Regarding the matters of the Witch Priest, Bai Qian had already made preparations to deal with them. There was no need for Gu Yu and Gu Mengyao to go out every time; she herself had capable individuals under her command who could be dispatched.
For this, Gu Yu was naturally happy to be relaxed and at ease. He quickly took his wife and brother-in-law on their treasure-hunting journey, no longer concerned with other matters.
“Brother-in-law, as we continue forward, we will reach the Central Plains. I heard that there are many martial arts sects there. I wonder who is stronger between them and my sister.”
“Be confident, your sister is the strongest in the world.”
Riding on horseback and walking slowly, such leisurely time was truly rare. Gu Yu, bathed in the sunset glow, his heart became very peaceful and tranquil.
However, this atmosphere was broken by Gu Qingheng’s words, and Gu Yu returned to the noisy reality.
However, seeing Gu Qingheng’s unworldly appearance, Gu Yu did not argue with him, but silently supported his little wife.
If Gu Mengyao had not been the Great General in the imperial court, those martial arts sects would have long been subdued by Gu Mengyao.
At that time, it would be asking for the psychological shadow area of these sects.
Therefore, Gu Qing’s words were in vain, and there was nothing to talk about.
“Tsk tsk tsk, although I know your relationship with my sister is very good, you can’t be so biased! Although my sister’s martial arts are amazing, this Linfeng Kingdom is so big, there are always many hidden talents!”
“Heh, with your sister here, dragons have to coil up, and tigers have to run with their tails between their legs.”
Then, listening to Gu Qingheng’s rebuttal, Gu Yu smiled slightly, obviously not agreeing with his brother-in-law’s words.
In his heart, Gu Mengyao was always the strongest!
Of course, Gu Mengyao’s strength was also so, and she could completely defeat others.
